GCL Consulting was started in 2003, under the name “Grian Culture and Language” (still the official name of the business), initially to provide Gaelic language and song courses in the community to adults who were interested. Since that time, it has also provided French and Spanish courses. Now, also using the acronym GCL Consulting, it offers consulting services in second language methodology, teaching, and content for any language but with specific focus on French, Spanish, and Scottish Gaelic. Incidentally, the name "Mcbuttons" came from a brief foray into merchandising several years ago that no longer exists.
The proprietor, Andrew McFayden, has extensive experience in second language methodology. Having been a practicing secondary school teacher since 1995, and teaching in second language programs since that time, Andrew has had a lot of experience in various types teaching styles in various languages and in various textbook programs each with varying approaches.
